Chapter 151: Truly Unseen, That's a Jiaolong Scale

  Su Wen felt embarrassed upon hearing Yuxue's words.

  He set up so many companies just to make money, what's the point of being a spendthrift. But Su Wen didn't want to argue with Yi Xue either, he knew how formidable Yi Xue was in this regard, and as an amateur, he might as well not get involved at all.

  "It's up to you from now on, Yuki."

  "I know."

  The two of them seemed to have formed a habit, where Su Wen would start something and then dump it on Yi Xue. In the past, Su Wen had already established Wenyu Entertainment Film and Television Company and Feitian Security Company, plus this unknown name shipping company and pharmaceutical company, which added up to four companies under Su Wen's control.

  Yi Xue went busy, but Su Wen went to find Xiao Ya instead.

  "When are you planning to go back?"

  "Su Wen, you want me to leave just like this?"

  "The ocean is your home, you don't need to stay on land yet. But whenever you come ashore, I'll welcome you."

  "Tomorrow at noon, I'll be setting sail from Donggang back to the open sea." Xiaoya's voice was a little low, "If you have time, will you come out to sea to see me off?"

  "I'm going to set up a shipping company soon, and I'll definitely go to the sea." Su Wen thought for a moment, "By then your face should be healed too, I still want to see your beautiful appearance."

  "I wish you could take off my mask with your own hands back then." Xiao Ya looked at Su Wen, "The two days I spent with you were very happy. Since I was a child, I've been abandoned by my parents and later on the high seas, following people to kill and fight, never able to sleep well. But in the two days I spent with you, I had an unprecedented sense of security."

  Su Wen saw that Xiao Ya was not joking and for a moment did not know what to say.

  "I know you don't like me, I won't bother you." Xiaoya seemed to know what Suwen was thinking, "Tomorrow morning, can you take me to Yunling Mountain to see it? I've been at sea and seen many small islands, but I've never seen a mountain before."

  "Yunling Mountain?" Su Wen furrowed his brow, "That's just a small mountain. If you have time, you can go take a look at the Five Great Mountains."

  "I have no more time, I must return to the ocean, next time I come, you can take me to see those great mountains again."

  "Alright, wait for you to come again. I will not only take you to see the Five Great Mountains, but also my hometown's Dapan Mountain. Although it is not one of the Five Great Mountains, it still retains its original appearance. Have you seen the little monster on my shoulder? It used to live in Dapan Mountain."

  "Really? Then I don't need to see the Five Great Mountains, looking at Mount Tai is enough."

  "Uh-huh, and by the way, try some farmhouse dishes, they're really good."

  "Good!"

  ……

  Evening.

  Chen Yunhao looked at Su Wen and asked in surprise: "Boss, why aren't you going back yet?"

  "It's only eight o'clock, can't I stay here for a little while longer?"

  "Alright, of course. Boss staying late at night in our humble shop is truly an honor beyond honors."

  "Cut the nonsense, someone's coming."

  Chen Yunhao looked towards the door and indeed a young man had arrived.

  "This is where Li Huan works?" A hint of disdain flashed in the man's eyes, "I don't know what you're thinking, auntie, letting Li Huan work in a place like this, it's really laughable."

  "Nie Yong, what are you talking about?" Li Huan's voice came over, "My mom said you'd come find me tonight, didn't expect you actually showed up. Honestly, I've never been too fond of your family line. Whether or not my grandpa and your grandpa were brothers is none of my business, that's all stuff from the previous generation. My grandpa only had one child in this generation, which is my mom, we don't need any side branches."

  "Hmph, if you're going to talk about family ties, what does your mother count as? A daughter who's married out is like water that's been splashed out, she's no longer a member of the Nie family. And you have even less relation to the Nie family. I won't hide it from you, this time when Grandfather celebrates his birthday, we're going to redivide the Nie family's assets and determine who they belong to." Nie Yong said coldly.

  "I don't care about the money, but if someone wants to take away what belongs to our family, I can only say sorry. This kind of absurd thinking is better left for dreams." Li Huan said, looking at Su Wen, "Boss, it's best not to let this person into our Aggregation Treasures Hall, I'm afraid he'll dirty the place."

  Nie Yong sneered, "You're doing business at Jibaozhai, and I'm a customer who's come to your door. Is there any reason to drive customers away? Or has Jibaozhai become so big that you can bully people as you please? Do you want me to spread the word for you tomorrow?"

  Li Huan was furious: "Nie Yong, are you trying to cause trouble on purpose?"

  Nie Yong said calmly, "I'm not intentionally causing trouble. Tomorrow is Grandpa's birthday, I came to buy some gifts, this should be normal enough. If you want to stop me even from doing this, and tomorrow I can't bring out the gift, then don't blame me for exposing you. What if I say something wrong, Grandpa will be very unhappy."

  Su Wen heard this and stopped Li Huan: "Let him take a look, anyway he can't afford it."

  "Who can't afford it?" Nie Yong snorted, "Your whole family's antique shop, what thing is it that I can't afford? You really aren't afraid of getting a slap in the face."

  "If you think you can afford it, then buy it and show me. " Su Wen smiled, "Of course, if you want to buy those worthless things on the first floor, the ancient coins over there are quite suitable for you. You can grab a handful when you leave, I'll consider it as a gift from me, no charge, also because of Li Huan's face."

  "Get rid of the beggar!" Nie Yong snorted, "Since your good stuff is all on the second floor, I'll go take a look and let some people know that working here is beneath them."

  Su Wen and Li Huan exchanged a glance, both of them flashing a hint of a smile.

  Nie Yong may have several million, or even tens of millions, but if he wants to buy something on the second floor, no matter how cheap it is, he can't afford it. Even if he could afford it, to be blunt, he wouldn't be willing to spend the money.

  Second floor upstairs.

  Zhao You was discussing Yuan Yang Shui with a middle-aged man, who had come to Ju Bao Xuan for the second time.

  "Mr. Wang, think about it yourself, there are guests coming over here."

  "I understand, Manager Zhao, you're busy."

  Nie Yong walked up to the counter, looked at the scattered items on it, and said disdainfully: "I thought there was something on the second floor, but it's just this little bit of stuff. Your store is really shabby."

  Mr. Wang was stunned when he heard Nie Yong's words, so many treasures were still called poor, had this young man gone blind?!

  "How much is it?" Nie Yong casually pointed.

  "This is the Huayan Pearl, 15 million! Zhao Yu thought for a moment, "However, only one can be purchased. If you have any ideas, come back early tomorrow. We've already sold three items today and don't plan to sell anymore for now."

  "How much?"

  "What's wrong with 15 million?"

  "Purchase limit?"

  "Yes, our guests can usually only buy one treasure."

  "Isn't it sold out yet today?"

  "The boss once said that when you're in a bad mood, sell less. Today I accidentally broke a Yuan Qinghua vase worth hundreds of thousands, and I'm in a really bad mood."

  Su Wen and the others couldn't help but laugh, but Nie Yong suddenly roared: "What kind of black-hearted store is this? I casually point to something, and you open your mouth asking for 15 million. Do you believe I'll report you?"

  "If you want to report, go ahead and report. I won't hide it from you, the Huiyan Pearl you just pointed out is the cheapest in our store. One look at you and I can tell you're a poor devil, who knows who let you up to the second floor today? Next time we'll definitely have someone strictly vetting, don't let any stray cats or dogs come up."

  "You... " Nie Yong couldn't say it out loud, "I don't believe it, how much is that one, that one?"

  "Original price 40 million yuan, starting from now!"

  "What's that?"

  "Magic Bean, 50 million and up!"

  "What about the black iron chunk over there?"

  "What a lack of knowledge! That's a dragon scale, starting at 1 billion!"

  Nie Yong was furious: "You're all mentally ill, Dragon Scales, Magic Beans, Yuan Yang Water, do you think this is a game store?"

  Zhao Yu glared at Nie Yong: "If you don't understand, then don't spout nonsense. You're not welcome here."

  Nie Yong wanted to flare up, but the middle-aged man on the other side pulled him back: "Young man, it's your first time coming to Jibao Pawnshop, I'll give you a piece of advice, don't make a scene here. The things sold in Jibao Pawnshop are all treasures, just because you can't afford them doesn't mean others can't afford them, and just because you don't believe it doesn't mean others don't believe it either. I won't say more to you now, when your status is enough, you will naturally understand. Now you don't understand what Zhao Zhuangui is saying, that's because your status is not enough yet."

  Nie Yong looked at the middle-aged man with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

  "Go away, the things in Jibaozhai are only sold to those who can afford them. This is indeed not a place you can come to." Su Wen looked at Nie Yong and said, "What I said still counts, you can grab a handful of coins from that pile on the first floor, if exchanged for money, it's enough for you to eat for a few months."

  "Hmph, believe you? You must be kidding." Nie Yong felt a bit guilty and hastily went downstairs after saying that.

  "Woof! Woof!"

  "Meow! Meow!"

  "Boss, is this the voice of Hummer 2?" Chen Yunhao suddenly remembered something.

  "I forgot to tell Nie Yong, I want to get something from the treasure house, but it depends on whether Hummer II will agree." Su Wen pretended to have just thought of it, "Little demon, go and reward Hummer II for me, they've been working hard lately, catching thieves and preventing thefts."

  The little demon jumped down from Su Wen's shoulder, leaving behind a shadow.

  "Li Huan, I feel that Nie Yong is not simple, at least his aura is much stronger than ordinary people." Su Wen suddenly spoke up.

  "He is a member of the Huaxia Wudang Association, I heard my grandfather say that he used to practice martial arts with a monk." Li Huan thought for a moment, "This time he came to Jiangning, several times provoking me, my mom told me to avoid him, but I think it's completely unnecessary, he is not my opponent now."
